Top 7 Places to Visit in Kerala during Summer Season

With a long stretch of coastline, serene backwaters, mist-covered hills, sprawling tea plantations, exotic wildlife, and many other wonderful things, Kerala never fails to impress any traveler. Unlike many other places in India, Kerala can be visited all year round. Even though there is no uniform climate in Kerala, each season creates a distinct ambiance in this green paradise. Kerala is an incredible and entrancing destination to visit in the summer season.

With a pleasant climate all year round, Kerala is a great place to spend the summer holiday. The temperature begins to rise at the end of February, and this marks the beginning of the summer in Kerala. While its neighboring states are sometimes tormented by scorching temperatures in the middle of this season, Kerala experiences a pleasant climate. This is due to the presence of the Western Ghats, which prevents dry winds from the northern states from entering the state and the Arabian Sea, which produces a cool breeze. There are also infrequent rainfalls in the state that bring temperatures down and then during the summer season. Read on to learn more about some of the best places to visit in Kerala during the summer season.
